"While in the United States working in
the cotton fields, I was moving from place to place when the car broke
down and crashed into a light post. It struck me on the head and put me
in very great danger far from my homeland and my family. I entrusted
myself with all my heart to San Miguelito." Retablo of Senovio
Trejo. Undated. Oil on metal. Dimensions unknown.
